CLEVELAND--Alcoa’s LvL ONE® wide base aluminum wheel has been selected as a “Top 5”
Product of 2010 by Heavy Duty Aftermarket Journal. Leading
editors selected products that exhibit innovation, usefulness to the end
user, effectiveness in improving performance and serviceability, and
potential to help distributors gain more business.

As part of the LvL ONE® wheel family, Alcoa LvL ONE® wide base wheels
combine the advantages of the lightest weight, brightest appearance and
strongest payload capacity in their class with the benefits of a wide
base wheel application. The 14-inch Alcoa LvL ONE® wide base wheel
weighs just 62 pounds, saving 1,350 pounds over steel single wheels on
an 18-wheeler. That weight savings translates to improved load capacity
or improved fuel economy for the vehicle.
